Chapter 1Introduction

Yao, Yancai

Pages: 1 –31

[Nanomaterials are defined as nanoscale materials with a size range of 1–100 nm in the three-dimensional space. They feature a single-domain crystal without complex grain boundaries. As a bridge between atoms and bulk materials, nanocrystals received a booming research interest due to their...

Chapter 2Modulating FCC and HCP Ruthenium on the Surface of Palladium–Copper Alloy Through Tunable Lattice Mismatch

Yao, Yancai

Pages: 33 –53

[Metal nanoparticles (NPs) are emerging as a central nanomaterial for catalysis, Nørskov et al., Chem Soc Rev37:2163–2171 (2008) (Nørskov et al. in Chem Soc Rev 37:2163–2171, 2008) plasmonic, Pelton et al., Laser Photon Rev 2:136–159 (2008) (Pelton et al. in Laser Photonics Rev 2:136–159, 2008)...

Chapter 3Engineering the Electronic Structure of Single Atom Ru Sites via Compressive Strain Boosts Acidic Water Oxidation Electrocatalysis

Yao, Yancai

Pages: 55 –92

[Single-atom precious metal catalysts hold the promise of perfect atom utilization, yet control of their activity and stability remains challenging. Here we show that engineering the electronic structure of atomically dispersed Ru1 on metal supports via compressive strain boosts the kinetically...

Chapter 4Engineering the Electronic Structure of Submonolayer Pt on Intermetallic Pd3Pb via Charge Transfer Boosts the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Yao, Yancai

Pages: 93 –116

[The efficient electrochemical hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) plays a key role in accelerating sustainable H2 production from water electrolysis, but its large-scale applications are hindered by the high cost of the state-of-the-art Pt catalyst. In this work, submonolayer Pt was controllably...

Chapter 5Conclusion and Perspective

Yao, Yancai

Pages: 117 –118

[Noble metal nanocrystals that are regarded as promising candidates have been widely applied in energy conversion and storage. This thesis is mainly involved in the controllable synthesis of novel ternary noble metal nanocrystals and their applications, of which are briefly introduced in the...
